Was just reading this:
https:// www.yahoo.com/news/russia-claims-ally-syria-shot-090208590.html
and saw, "A total of 105 missiles rained down." Interesting choice of words don't you think?
Then thinking of the context of the last Q drop regarding, "showers," it occurred to me, what's the difference between, "rain," and "showers?" Intensity.
Showers tend to be heavier than just plain old rain and of rather short duration. Quick heavy downpour and then it's over. Just some thoughts.
